CONTRAINDICATIONS TO
SURGICAL REDUCTION AND
STABILIZATIONSituations in which there is a high probability for
failure with operative treatment are as follows:
1. Osteoporotic bone that is too fragile to allow
stabilization by internal or external fixation.
2. Soft tissues overlying the fracture or planned
surgical approach of such poor quality because of
scarring, burns,active infection, or dermatitis .
3. Active infection or osteomyelitis.
4. Fracture comminution to a degree that does not
allow successful reconstruction. This is most
commonly seen in severe intraarticular fractures.
5. General medical conditions that are contraindications
to anesthesia are generally contraindications to the
surgical treatment of fractures.
6. Undisplaced or stable impacted fractures in
acceptable position do not require surgical exposure
or reduction.

Osteoporotic bone that is too fragile to allow stabilization by internal or external fixation. 2. Soft tissues overlying the fracture or planned surgical approach of such poor quality because of scarring, burns,active infection, or dermatitis . 3. Active infection or osteomyelitis. 4. Fracture comminution to a degree that does not allow successful reconstruction. This is most commonly seen in severe intraarticular fractures. 5. General medical conditions that are contraindications to anesthesia are generally contraindications to the surgical treatment of fractures. 6. Undisplaced or stable impacted fractures in acceptable position do not require surgical exposure or reduction. 7. Inadequate equipment, manpower, training, and
